it is hard to do a big package. our republican friends have said they are not willing to do revenues and they have repeated that on several occasions. i hope that they are listening not just to lobbyists for special interests here in washington, but they are also listening to the american people, because it turns out, many polls done by your organization show that it is not just democrats who show we need to take a balanced approach, many republicans do as well. many republican voters think that any deficit reduction package should have a balanced approach and should include some revenues. it is not just democrats. it is a majority of republicans. you have a whole slew of republican officials from previous administrations. you have a bipartisan commission that has said that we need revenues. this is not just a democratic understanding, this is an understanding that the american people believe we should not be asking sacrifices from middle- class folks who are working hard every day, from the most vulnerable in our s

social media helps us to see how big the ocean is and how big our reach can be. it helps us realize we are not just a wave. we are part of a much larger movement. my question to you is, how does it help foster engagement? if you could share some examples from the work you do. if you feel you have a good response, you can chime in. how the social media help? >> one way is because no longer do people have to wait for an organization to come to them and ask them to vote or to serve or to get their friends involved in something. they can stand up and say this is what is important to me. i want to do that. it is helping to foster a power shift in terms of becoming less centralized and the coming to a network based strategy and seeing how empowering their supporters to be advocates on their behalf actually decreases them of their workload and gets more people involved in the process. that is important. i think social media provides a low-cost, low barrier of entry, easy way for people to take action where they might not have been able to otherwise before, whether it is

i am a big supporter of biofuels. one thing that has become clear is that we need to accelerate our basic research in ethanol and other biofuels made from things like wood chips and algae as opposed to just focusing on corn. that is probably the least efficient energy producer of the various other approaches. it is important to examine if we're going after the cutting edge by diesel --biodiesel and ethanol approaches that allow brazil to run about 1/3 of its transportation system on biofuels. they get it from sugar cane. it is a more efficient conversion process than corn- based ethanol. doing more research in finding better ways to do the same concepts, i think that is the right way to go. >> i believe you addressed this next one. we will skip past it. james says he would cut costs by cutting welfare programs. people will not try harder when they are handed everything. >> i think we should acknowledge that some welfare programs in the past were not well-designed. in some cases, they did encourage dependency. i worked
